Description
This is an optional module for Story Disabler that hastens the early-game. It will not work without Story Disabler installed.

What this does
Instead of having to go through the trouble of mining iron and building armor, crafting tables and what-have-you, Quick Start spawns you with a full set of gear to help you get started:
  • A full set of Mercenary Armor (a race-agnostic equivalent to Iron Armor);
  • A Head Scarf vanity item (to hide the Mercenary Helmet's appearance);
  • 10 Iron Bars;
  • 20 Core Fragments;
  • 50 Timber;
  • 100 Erchius Crystals;
  • All starter crafting tables
Additionally, Garden planets are bumped to Tier 2 for game balancing. This allows the player to have not just a quicker start, but also a more varied one, as they now may choose one of three planets to start their adventure on - Garden, Forest or Desert. The goal of this mod is to minimize early-game grinding and let players jump into action more quickly.

Known Issues
  • The items are only given once, when a player is created. This means that if you lose your items for whatever reason (most likely by playing on Survival and dying without a mod that removes inventory loss on death), you will get softlocked by virtue of no longer having adequate armor to survive on Tier 2 planets. There is no way to overcome this design flaw without potentially breaking game balance for non-Survival players by making Tier 1 armor free to craft, so consider Survival mode to be UNSUPPORTED.

Compatibility
Does not work with Frackin' Universe. Even if it did, it would break its balance.

Grassland Planets has a compatibility patch.

and by conflict avoidance strats i mean getting a bunch of blocks (better stash some in advance) and moving exclusively through your sealed corridors

I'm pretty sure armor isn't dropped in survival, along with weapons. Even if it is, navigating an environment that's just 1 tier above isn't too hard with conflict avoidance strats
